We are grateful for your interest in volunteering at Fox. We welcome all parents, grandparents, and guardians into our classrooms and school. The volunteer clearance process has recently been changed by the school district.

Start your volunteer authorization process by completing the school district's required Volunteer Form by clicking on the link below (STEP ONE). This form indicates to the district your interest in volunteering. Next, visit the district webpage to determine the level of clearance you are seeking; your Clearance Level is determined by the type of volunteer work you will be doing. Print the required paperwork from the district webpage, and submit the completed forms to the school office.

1.) STEP ONE - Complete the District Volunteer Form

https://brssd.formstack.com/forms/volunteer_form_16_17

2.) STEP TWO - Determine which level of clearance you require (Level I, II, or III)

https://www.brssd.org/volunteer-information/

3.) STEP THREE - Print the forms for the required tests (TB, fingerprinting, and/or vehicle)

Please view the Belmont-Redwood Shores School District website for next year's enrollment information: https://www.brssd.org/online-enrollment. The district website is very informative and tells you everything you need to know about registering your child, including important dates and documents needed for each school. You can view the 2019-2020 enrollment timeline, TK/Kindergarten visitation details, immunizations needed, etc.

Online enrollment for 2019-2020 starts on January 4, 2019.

Students already assigned to Fox and planning to continue need not do anything. Present Grade 5 students will receive information for their registration from their teachers regarding Middle School registration procedures.

Once again we are asking each returning family to donate $50 per child to the Fox school supply fund. We will provide each teacher with the supplies needed to best support the programs and activities for each individual classroom. This contribution will help with supplies for the next school year.

Here is why this is a win-win:

• No parent trips to the local supply store at the beginning of the year

• Each teacher will have his or her unique classroom supply needs met

• Fox has access to school supply vendors, allowing us to purchase in bulk at a significant discount

This $50 is completely voluntary. Please help us by contributing.

Additionally, we welcome contributions above that amount to support families who are not able to participate.

This year you may pay by cash, check or through PayPal. 

If paying by cash or check, please download and complete this form and return it with your donation to your child's teacher or the front office. Please make checks payable to "Fox School Supplies Donation Fund". 

If paying through PayPal, please submit payment to BenFoxPayPal@gmail.com.

Thanks for you contribution!

Save up your recycling to support Fox

Each school year, we raise thousands of dollars to support our PTA programs by collecting recyclables from the Fox community on Fridays. 

A parent volunteer will be at the flag pole on Friday mornings during drop-off, collecting CA-CRV recyclables, including plastic water and soda bottles, glass beer bottles, and aluminum beverage cans.

Please contact Jim Cole with any questions or offers to help with the collection of recyclables: jim.cole1@me.com or 650-339-1775.
